PROJECT BAGS
My bold colour pop zip pouches are amazing for all your important ‘bits & bobs’ when you are off on your travels or in your work bag making those much needed items easy to find in often crowded spaces.
They are also perfect Project Bags for small knitting, crochet or craft projects. Keeping your projects safe and easy to transport in a stylish functional pocket. I use mine to store my ‘in development’ lino and tools so I can take them wherever I go.
AWARD WINNER
CRAFT Festival, Cheltenham
8th - 10th MARCH 2024
Cheltenham Town Hall
Wow, what a great weekend exhibiting at Craft Festival Cheltenham. Sarah and the team really do create the most amazing events.
Blown away to have been highly commended at the event. What an honour to have been selected from such a talented group of amazing designer/makers.
CREATE STATEMENT LIGHTING
A perfect way to brighten up your home with a bold colourful statement, the CLUSTER PENDANT has a real WOW factory but is in fact very easy to achieve . A beautifully simple way to add colourful statements to your home, you can cluster with a couple of shades or as many as as you like. I prefer the balance of odd numbers so would suggest a cluster pendant with 3 or 5 lampshades.
Why not use 3 different lampshade designs to create a wonderful colour pop or try and cluster 5 lampshades in one design and colour to create a bold larger statement piece. Creative Cables sell amazing cables and pendant kits so you’ll find everything you need to create the fitting for your lampshades so it really couldn’t be easier.

Charity Project - Creativity supporting mental health
Charity is how this whole company started and charity support remains so important to both myself and the business. Over the summer I took my potters wheel to Michael House hostel for the homeless to have a fun afternoon of pottery throwing in their wonderful garden with Mark and some of the residents there. Creativity really can help with managing our mental health and has really been a life saver for me over the last 10 years since the passing of my mum.
We had a fantastic afternoon creating pots and chatting about our lives. Sometimes when we are feeling overwhelmed by life, your struggles, a bereavement or just juggling life itself having a process driven activity to completely focus the mind can really reset how we feel.
The world is a difficult place right now so to be able to help this wonderful hostel through creative practice at the most difficult of times really does mean the world to this small business.
Why not follow my story on instagram…
I share all my product news and events across social media and regularly share little snippets of new ideas or insights into my unique design processes. It really an easy and interesting way to keep in touch with this growing business and my day to day events and challenges.
